We also say it correctly and call it the state tournament not states

Cole couldn't be any closer to beating these top guys, he gets better every week and is the only guy that never gets the rewards. I feel like he's going to have a coming out party like Beau Bassett and SVN did at Nationals.
Winning big 10s would awesome. Hey a man can wish

Totally agreed needing the experience for his career, just wonder if there’s a point this year where he’s learned what he can and they punt to next year on it and switch focus to neutral scoring.

If that’s the approach they want him to take in B1Gs and NCAAs, which seems likely, might be something to work on the next few times he’s out there?
I thought the look he gave the corner was priceless he went right down because he knew the coaches wanted him to work lol

I believe that's the 4th dual he's wrestled for PSU, which would be under the threshold. I believe he had 3 matches at Opens -- I don't recall if he wrestled unattached in them or not.
Thank you watching Iowa and at intermission amine said it was burnt but he is an idiot he also said it was a close dual

The qualifying events leading up to the state tournament. I'm from IL we call that the state series. We also say it correctly and call it the state tournament not states

Well, you don't get to state unless you get past section, district and region. Then, after your high school career, hopefully, you can win National, World and Olympic. Sounds stupid, doesn't it?

Is there a point where they stop letting Cole go on bottom? gas tank is there, and I think offense could be there, but he just hasn’t show the ability to get up against top guys. Relying on 3rd period desperation offense isn’t a recipe for long term success imo.
Maybe he has Cole practicing his weaknesses?

Just for the sake of clarity: They said on BTN that Desmond burned his shirt, which is absolutely not the case. Tonight was his fourth dual meel, but only his third dual meet competition date as the Nashville double dual day counted as one event day. Everyone was attached at the Black Knight Invitational, which means he has used four of his five dates. So if Desmond wrestles again twice more this season, his redshirt will be burned.

I don't know about Nationals. I don't know about Big Tens. I do believe Cole will beat Feldman next week.

I see a tired wrestling team battling hard, working on things, not worrying about the outcome. Sure, some make it look easy. I expect a party this coming Friday.
I want to see Nate take out Mendez, they'll have to rebuild the BJC after that happens.

To clarify: Bassett (SW) and Harer (NE) are in different regionals. They cannot meet until Hershey.

And it would be in the state finals. They will tie for the 1 seed -- each gets 100 pts as a 2025 state champ + 100 points for being undefeated. And PIAA rules require separating them until the finals.

I expect things to be a little lighter in the room this week......let the whole team have some real fun Friday night. The UM kid just beat Feldman. Cole will be ready. He might even be allowed to take neutral. :D

maybe this is the plan. Get opponents to believe, and then boom, he changes, and hits the leg at an angle. I can dream!

One of the Playboy Centerfold GOATs, then went on Dancing With the Stars where you could ogle her right in front of your girlfriend or wife with her none the wiser.

Grew up in Philly and the Poconos.

5’3” inches of perfection
Exaggerated. Her official height is ,4'11". My best friend works in the daytime television business and was on set for General Hospital many many times. Kelly, while absolutely beautiful and striking, is very very tiny. In fact, most of the actors on that show are just damn near midgets: The framing of the camera for daytime television lends itself to smaller actors.

Don't ask my why I know this useless information I just do 😂

I work with a pretty sexy Latina who is about 5’ even. Nothing wrong with tiny. Pair it with 34Ds like Kelly Monaco and you’ve got yourself a goddess

Levi with a TD with 0:03 sec left in the match to get the TF
Tom - if you get a chance, look at that last takedown in slow motion. They were very very close to off the mat. Not that it would have mattered much for the outcome, but I’m surprised Bormet didn’t throw the brick.
